Even the "scientific community" is coming painfully close to creating a witch hunt every time someone wants to question evolutionary teaching. When people gain authority they hate to have it challenged.

The scientific community hasn't typically ordered the murder, arrest, torture, excommunication, or burning at the stake of its philosophical disputants. It does not forbid the reading of their books, unlike the Catholic church, to this very day.

However, this does not change the original statement that the science and faith mix, and mix well. Politics and challenges to authority don't.

Be that as it may, that still does not make ID a science worthy of being taught in science classes.

I am not arguing that point. I'm not even interested in arguing that point. Why do you bring it up?

Shalom.
